3 The Functions You Need in NetCDF-3
The netCDF-3 C and Fortran APIs each have over 100 functions, but most
users need only a handful. Listed below are the essential netCDF
functions for four important tasks in netCDF: creating new files,
reading existing files, learning about a netCDF file of unknown
structure, and reading and writing subsets of data.
In each case the functions are presented for each of the four language
APIs: C, Fortran 77, Fortran 90, and C++, with hyper-links to the
detailed documentation of each function.
